Pain and Promise: Remembering the Fight for School Integration | American Experience | Official Site : vimarsana.com

In 2023, American Experience partnered with StoryCorps Studios to record, uplift and archive stories about racial desegregation and educational equity efforts in American schools. These personal accounts reflect experiences from an array of regional, racial, ethnic, and gender perspectives, providing a link to a formative chapter in the story of modern America.

These stories you are about to listen to are unedited accounts of those experiences.
